On my local box (Ubuntu) this works fine.
On the linux host I'm using once you log in (as a normal user, WikiSysop, any user type) and edit something (any page) and hit save it acts as though you hit the preview. If you're logged out you can edit and save normally.
Any ideas?
Could this be related to this quirk? In a previous email I asked about users auto logging out. I added this:
session_save_path("/public_html/sandBoxWiki/sessions");
to my LocalSettings.php. Now users only stay logged in if you check "Remember my password across sessions"

I'm seeing this on the Wikiwyg server, too. At first, I thought it was a misconfiguration thing, but maybe not.
What PHP versions are being used? What does session_save_path() return before changing it? (call it without any arguments)

I should mention, but probably forgot to earlier, I'm using 1.4beta6 (which was the newest avaliable when I started coding). It is quite possible if I got 1.4 this would go away.
I didn't update so far because I didn't want to risk a not working system while I had a partly working one, before I did a presentation on my software.

Make sure that path is correct. Remember that's a filesystem path, not a URL, and starting with '/' means that a 'public_html' needs to exist in the root directory of the file system.

Thanks again for all the help on this.
This might or might not be a good sign... this issue resolved itself when I rebooted Ubuntu (Debian) - not the hosting box but the box that was calling the hosting box (the client). I noticed that this was working fine when I tried it from work and seemed to be limited to my home box. I rebooted and it was fixed. I've only been using Linux for a week and was under the impression you didn't need to ever reboot these things... still learning. :)
While I read in the FAQ that Brion occasionally sleeps I'm not yet convinced. Anecdotal evidence suggests otherwise. :)

I don't think that he actally sleeps, I have heard that he takes 5-10 minute breaks from time to time to browse through the articles in the Wikipedia.
